Come on 240, just look at Jimmy Vest picture

The level of the competitor will be beyond shitty $:-\$

And he is still better than Kamali who jsut qualified for the Olympia. Hard to explain that one eh?

You know whats funny is Lee just made more from the PDI than Chic has with the IFBB. Monster owning of Chic.

Bigger Business · « **Reply #27 on:** September 17, 2006, 05:35:14 AM »

...he's tight with demelia or JUST to stir up shit with the ifbb?

dont even suggest he did it to try and help advance bodybuilding

Yorkie T · « **Reply #28 on:** September 17, 2006, 05:47:48 AM »

i think he did do it to advance it in a way..i think hes sick of the way the ifbb has been run and the way people get treat, and he knows that another federation will help bodybuilding, so hes gone over to try and make it work, hes taken a stand and is hoping others will follow him in time, thats the way i see it....he certainly hasnt done it to advance his own career so what other reason would he have to do it.

he could have done the olympia and made that if not more and STILL had the career he's had in the IFBB....get it dumbass.

moorons isnt a word.

Actually...you dont get it. If Lee had never looked at the PDI...he picks up $20K or more at the O and $10K here or there at a small show or two. No PDI = No suspension

FreshMintBlue · « **Reply #33 on:** September 17, 2006, 08:10:27 AM »

I know and understand what you guys mean but I still believe he did the right thing, and the main reason was money.
He took a chance and it did not work out.

gtbro1 · « **Reply #34 on:** September 17, 2006, 08:27:02 AM »

How much could he get at the O? What does it pay to the top 6 guys? Anyone know?I have never heard what the prize money is,only that many get nothing.

P.S. 20K is 20 k no matter where he gets it. If you saw an opportunity to earn an easy(relatively) 20 k would you?

Bigger Business · « **Reply #35 on:** September 17, 2006, 08:28:22 AM »

lee's not that stupid...twinlab obviously gave him their blessing or else he would stand to lose a lot more by losing his contract with them.

he may think that public preasure on the ifbb will see him compete at the O

either way

were talking about him so that keeps him marketable

the point is...that could be the last 20k he ever wins from bodybuilding

Except for Ronnie and Jay(when he was doing the ASC every year), nobody makes anywhere near enough from prize money at contests to amount to anything. Other than those two, the guys who are earning a living from this "sport" do so from sponsorships/endorsements. Look at Kamali... he could have earned far more money flipping burgers for minimum wage than what he's earned in prize money over the years.

i agree....but sponsors want there athletes on stage...winning/placing preferably

I understand your point,but I also agree with you that he is not stupid,and if he really thyought it would ruin his career he wouldn't have done it.

Not necessarily... they just want them "in the public eye"... they want us talking about them. Shawn Ray hasn't stepped on a stage in years... Vyotech doesn't seem to care. Prior to his Master's ~~gift~~ win, Bob was all but retired. Kamali sucks as a competitive bodybuilder. Look at Palumbo! Look at Valentino. Shall I go on? This ain't like athletes in real sports... notoriety and controversy is the key, not "success" on a stage.

Dball · « **Reply #42 on:** September 17, 2006, 09:44:33 AM »

the texas shredder? no, wait, that is drug tested...

how about the heart of texas NPC show.

maybe you can get your ifbb pro card you work so hard for, and not have to compete in the PDI anymore.

good luck

Whatever Lee's motivation was/is, he said, GO FU__ YOURSELF to the IFBB. Guaranteed many, many bodybuilders in the IFBB are talking and thinking about it today and their options.

Bodybuilders are MORONS....PLAIN AND FU_____ SIMPLE! They have guys that never dieted in their lives plan out diets for them, they have guys that couldn't stand on any bodybuilding stage, even at a state show) and do well help them with their training......Bodybuildi ng is the only "sport/game" where people do this. Lee got whatever brains they have in their head spinning and PERHAPS some thought process in gonna begin. Of course not all bodybuilders are morons, just the majority.

Lee priest showed and proved all the doubters WRONG. He stands on his OWN two feet and makes things happen.

Hey lee congrats, do you think that it was an mistake to ignore the threads from the IFBB regarding your suspension?
Do you regret it a little?
Or are you totaly happy that you've won the NOC and are 20K richer?
